that said, one and a half grand on a coat is a leeeeetle bit excessive for the ordinary man, or woman, in the street.

Italians can't resist.

[Burney]

Good Lord no. A marriage isn't a competitive event, f, nor should it carry a whiff of tit for tat.

Your glw deserves £1,500 coats, for she is the cream in your coffee, the pearl in your oyster, your sunrise and sunset.

Cherish her well, f, and begrudge her not, for you are lucky to have her.

I'm not sure a pearl in an oyster is a good thing. You could damage your bridgework.

And cream in coffee is rank.

The only slight problem is she buys these things and then she moans she spent to much and feels guilty.

Not often though.

A-ha! So of course, you choose the selfless option of not treating yourself, so when she is wracked by guilt you can give her the money!

Come to think of it, why aren't you buying her £1,500 coats, you tight-fisted woman-abuser.

I am disappoint.

[SWv2]

if say your wife bought a coat for £1500

Rather than be mad you can just go out and treat yourself to something?

Assuming it is her money she can do whatever the **** she wants with it.

If I bought her it she'd moan at me! saying I should be saving.

[Pat Vegas]

That was my attitude.

[Sir C]

Moan she may, yet you would still have done the Right Thing.

The Right Thing is always to spoil your woman.

[Mo Britain less Europe]

I wouldn;t have a problem because I know she wouldn't have a problem if I went out and bought myself something expensive.
